Thanks for answering burntsushi I didn't expect you to reply personally. It's true that there is some good value in having smart sane defaults, and skipping always looking for 2 or 3 advanced flags which are only used from time t

maybe you never bothered giving to grep as input parameters the same 2 or 3 folders which are usually scanned? Anyway, I ignored grep is not multicore and wouldn't expect CPU to be the main bottleneck. That's a good use case for a

maybe I did not had this problem yet... if I used grep on linux sources I would just skip the build folder and it usually works flawless (cannot even recall when was it too slow unless grepping over binary data). Do you refer maybe to deep

I cannot understand all that amount of excitement. Are we under heavy fanbot attack or am I missing something? If the whole thing is that, is faster than grep and "in Rust we Trust" then please feel free to ignore my comment. I wo

If your question is whether Elm is mature enough for production, the answer is yes. There are some companies out there, but don't let their opinion condition your experience. Rather than relying on other people's opinion a better

is the WAM the best virtual machine for prolog or are there out better and newer approaches?

I totally agree that most of the *nix tools are most of the time the best ones, but things get trickier when there is a complex dynamic pipeline e.g. the input conditions the kind of processes and these are also dynamic based on other input

I don't get the motivation of this article, it links to the taco bell programming article which says exactly the same. I usually wouldn't write an article to repeat the same another article says, or if it is something that could h

I remember I took a serious look at Kotlin for some hobby projects. On the paper it was a great language with many interesting features but it ended up being just another kid in the current generation of new high level languages, nothing el

Everyone knows there is a tone of bullshit at time to recruit, but recruiters, and human resources in general, need to justify their job and authority based on psychological assumptions put out of context. Or even just pure bias. The range

I can see that happening: "the deployment was a piece of cake". What says the project about security? "Only rudimentary input handling. We would not be running this on a public machine." What will the hipsters say? &quot

For me this question looks like "is there a good paid job to play with the newest toys in the market"? The closest thing I know are some evangelizers in big companies who build proofs of concepts with megacorp tech + state of the

I think that needs a bit of context... what is all this topic about and how should it be answered for what purposed; what happens when someone completes the test?

not all abstractions are leaky, many compilers/language grammars enforce the paradigm of local lexical contexts. Playing a game without accept its self imposed restrictions whose player accepted voluntarily would be lying to oneself.

I agree with the sentiment of the article, nowadays there is almost no reason to not use a high level language for most of the tasks... native code could be just plugged on demand. That's exactly what Numba[0] does for python, just a d

why to pay for a platform if everyone could use github static pages and just publish by git commit?

Actually it is a pity that so many languages compile to JS but have an FFI which is not really friendly towards the programmer or that requires some code to write adaptors etc. Let's see how it evolves with asmjs.

I do not think discipline is a reliable factor in many aspects... once you try a good compiler or a well designed/consistent API there is no way back. Look for example at C++, no one knows all of it and the newer a developer is the mor

honestly, I would see dropping features and select a leaner ES6+ version within the html tag as a very good "feature". The strict mode also does not fix some historical inconsistencies and design bugs just preserved for compatibil

by nudpiedo 8y ago
My point is, why continue bloating javascript if its main weakness are some of its historical design issues (preserved only for backwards compatibility.)

by nudpiedo 8y ago
why no one proposes as feature a header to make javascript strict with the newest standard and deprecate and drop compatibility from previous versions in the newer ones? Or even just complete support for asmjs with interop and program in co

But that's the development environemnt/compiler and tooling. It still could generate binaries for microcontrolers for example.

In addition to development, there is always a tone of work related with the system that cannot be avoided unless paying big bucks. Do not forget the basics for operating systems: there are thigns that are absolute basics: - bash/linux

Would be cool to have any sort of support and consolidation on the major desktop operating systems, by providing a standarized sandbox, some common APIs, etc... But as long as it is only supported by the browser I don't think it will

I guess it is mostly the subjective comfortableness of python (and the capacity of throwing prototypes for a team who has only python skills). In my experience all these frameworks end up lacking at some point and becoming leaky abstraction
